Heavier weight than Oprah in a Hometown Buffet

A good way to weigh-down a J2ME CDC environment (like on a cell phone) is to put OSGi on top of it.

See:

Too much to put OSGi on a cell phone

Ugh. That's a lot of dependencies to put on a small device. Instead, as shown in the diagram given, it's better to have an agent talk to an OSGi service bundle running on a back-end server. The correct client/server split is crucial on mobile devices. The clean way to communicate securely is to use temporary 64-bit key tokens between the device and the back-end service, then use Jini Agent technology to do all the proper communication happen between the client and OSGi container. More details in future postings...
